MARQUETTE, Mich. (WJMN) – When you walk through the doors of the Steve Mariucci Family Beacon House, it’s probably for an unfortunate reason. “A lot of people have heard of Ronald McDonald Houses where families will stay when a child has a serious illness and is near a children’s hospital,” said Mary Tavernini Dowling, CEO, Mariucci Family Beacon House. “Many people have heard of Hope Lodges which are cancer related. It’s a house next to a cancer treatment center. I recently just read a beautiful story about the Fisher House where veterans stay when they’re getting their medical care. What Beacon House is, is all of those things rolled into one because our regional medical center is here when people have cancer or they have serious illnesses, a brain tumor or where orthopedic surgery is required, this is the hospital that they come to. So, when you have that medical emergency, that you have a safe affordable place to stay and the last thing you have to worry about is, ‘Can I afford it?'”

MARQUETTE, Mich. (WJMN) – Thursday, March 30 is the opening night of the Masonic Arts, Theatre and Innovation Company’s production of “Jesus Christ Superstar”. “Jesus Christ Superstar” is “loosely based on the Gospels’ accounts of the Passion, the work interprets the psychology of Jesus and other characters, with much of the plot centered on Judas, who is dissatisfied with the direction in which Jesus is steering his disciples.”
